The effect of neprilysin and renin inhibition on the renal dysfunction following ischemia‐reperfusion injury in the rat

Abstract The natriuretic peptide (NP) system counter‐regulates the renin‐angiotensin system (RAS), so enhancing the activity of natriuretic peptides (NPs) may be beneficial in conditions when RAS is activated such as ischemia‐reperfusion injury (IRI). Neprilysin is the key enzyme responsible for the...
